Take Care of YOur Boys.

1t IS always pleasanter to express
appreciation of good conduct than dis
appreciation of bad, but the latter is
sometimes necessary because OF the
carelessness, or heedlessnesS. or wan
ton disregard of the rules OF propri-
ely on the part of somebody. II lit
tie boys are permitted TO congregate
on some favorably situated street cor
ner as nightfall approaches and en-
gage in noisy game or boisterous pas
time until late hour at night, much
to the annoyance and hindrance OF
people engaged in quiet pursuit of
business in that vicinity, somebody is
committing a grievous error. First,
it Is wholly improper for parents to
allow their children to convert the
public street into playground and
render night hideous with their dis
gusting hoodlumism. Foul and pro-
fame language, violence of temper and
indecent behavior characterize their
amusemeDts throughout. This is
shameful-apd ought to be regarded
as criminal-neglect on the part of
parents. Secondly, it is direct viola
ton of muicipal law. Police author
tiles should not allow ii. UnObtru
sive business people have a right
to demand immunity from such an
noyances, and an appeal to the city's
legislative body may be necessary,
not only TO enforce respect for that
right, but to protect these wayward
urchins from the certain evil into
which they are being lured by iniiu-
ences associated with such an objec-
tiOnable form OF diversion. Every
parent knows the proper place for his
hoy at eight, nine or ten o'clock at
night. Every street officer under
stands fine ordinary rights of citizen
ship. Let this intimation be taken as
it is meant to apply, and it will not
be necessary TO follow it with sug-
gestion-and the suggestion with
something else.

''THE JEST OF THE CRSPOOL."

BEING TABERNACLE PLEASANTLY.
Men know of great city in the West.
And they know also of a darkness, even
oil darkness enshrouding it. And the
city acknowledged government known
as the tabernacle. And the Tabernacle
gave its authority to body known as the
Mormon City Council. And the Nor
mon City Council ruled in the name of
the tabernacle, and the darkness thereof
was IN the city and around about it.
AND the people of the city paid great
trieute IN money to the Tabernacle. And
thls tribute in money was called taxes,
ana the Mormon City Council received
this great tribute Of money called taxes
lor the tabernacle. And the people
were cajoled, even as the Tabernacle
knows how to cajole. And the people
were told that the money tribute was for
their own good, and for the good of the
city, and the people heard, but they saw
not. For in the darkness of the Tab
ernacie the money tribute called taxes
disappeared, and neither was the good
perceived that the taxes were to bring to
Ine people and to the city. And the
-~oernacle receipted to the Nor
nana, M Ni'y Council for the tribute

A CHURCH EXCHANGE.

A Church exchange, the SOulher n Uton-
ian, in replying to recent editorial in
The DEMOCRAT on Mormon education,
says: ave infer that THE DEMOCRAT
believes that the Mormon Church schools
will eventually pass into the hands of the
Gentiles. Not so. These are private
institutions, and are in nowise under
Territorial supervision. They are main
tanned entirely independent of Ter.
ritorial appropriation, and cannot be
tampered with. The Utonian is
under misapprehension in regard to
THE DEMOCRATS editorial, though the
language used was certainly plain
enough for even Church comprehension.
THE DEMOCRAT did not then refer to the
private schools of the Mormon Church,
though it very probably will in the near
future. The subject of the article to
which the outlying Church organ takes
such bungling exception, was the ward
schools of Salt Lake City, and the rela-
ton in which they stand to the general
educational interests of the Territory.
The ward schools of Salt Lake City are
as much under Mormon educational con-
troll as any purely private Mormon
Church school in the Territory. But the
boards of those schools are elective by
the people, and in order to break the
paralyzing Mormon supremacy it is only
necessary to elect Gentle school boards.
With the election Of Gentle school
boards would come thorough regenera-
ton of the ward schools. Teachers of
experience and capacity would be
employed. Talent would be the
teachers test, instead of the slavish
profession of superstitious dogmas. Tab
ernacle tenets would no longer dominate,
and the ward schools of Salt Lake City
would exercise the true function of the
education of youth, instead Of being the
vicious nurseries of a false church.
Therefore THE DEMOCRAT appealed to the
Gentiles of the various wards of the city
to act with vigor and unahimity, that this
glorious regeneration might be accom-
plished, and that the ward schools
of Salt Lake City might become
schools in fact as well as in name.
But while thus applying to the city itself,
the DEMOCRAT article had wider scope.
1t passed beyond The city limits and
looked around over the Territory. 1t saw
the same cause for action everywhere,
and it realized that decisive educational
victory in Salt Lake City must react glo-
riously upon the Territory at large. 1t
saw that the election OF Salt Lake Gen
tile school boards must pave the way for
the introduction Of free school system
throughout Utah. And therefore this great
fact was urged as further incentive to
educational action in the wards of Salt
Lake. The Mormon Church is welcome
to its purely private schools. They cut
but very small figure in the great edu-
cational future of Utah now SO close at
hand. A free school system once in
operation, and the private schools of the
Mormon Church are powerless.

Council bent low before the Tabernacle,
as was its wont, and spoke saying Be
hold and listen, o Rulers and Elders Of
the Tabernacle. The people OF the city
mourn exceeding loud because Of
the tribute they pay, and be-
cause of the promised good they
do not perceive. And the people
reason between themselves, and think
that there must be a great leak some
where" And the rulers and elders of
the Tabernacle, and the Mormon City
Council made merry with each other at
the expense of the people of the city,
even as it was the way of the Tabernacle
and the Mormon City Council to make
merry. And they said one to another,
cit is one thing to know of leak, and
another to find it." And they reflected
how well hidden was the leak of
which the people complained, and
they were amused, and laughed
with exceeding enjoyment. And the
rulers and elders OF the Tabernacle spoke
unto their servants, the members of the
Mormon City Council, saying, "Let us
answer these people of the city who dare
to complain of the hidden Tabernacle
leak, by Tabernacle jest. And this jest
shall be as usual at the expense OF the
people of the city, and the people shall
paw once more for a Tabernacle pleas
antry." And what was good IN the eyes
of the Tabernacle was good in the
eyes of the Mormon City Council. and
J the members thereof consulted merrily
with the rulers and elders of the Taber
nacle, and the jest was prepared. And
this jest turned upon the Tabernacle leak
the people Of the city knew of, but could
not find And it was called the "Jest of
the Cesspool." For said the rulers and
elders Of the Tabernacle and the mem
bers of the Mormon City Councilsa "The
people OF the city are seeking for Taber-
nacle leak, and we will even display one
unto them" And the way thereof was
easily found. The people of the city had
longed for many days that trenches might
be digged beneath the city to carry away
the filth thereof from their midst. And
these trenches had been much spoken of,
and they were called sewers. And these
sewers gave the idea to the rulers and
elders of the Tabernacle, and their SER
wants in all things, the members OF the
Mormon City Council, of the "Jest of the
Cesspool." And they said one to an
other, "We will not dig the trenches
called sewers for the people of the city,
but will sink deep pits through
out the city. And into these
deep pits shall the filth of
the city drain slowly. And each
of these deep pits shall be called a cess
pool And as the filth and corruption of
the city leaks into these cesspools, it
shall be called The Tabernacle Leak.
We will say to the people of the city, Be
hold you sought Tabernacle leak that
was hidden. Look upon a Tabernacle leak
that ali can see." And it was done even
as the merry rulers and elders of the Tab
ernacle and the members of the Mormon
City Council said. And this pleasantly
at the expense of the people of the city
came to pass. The "Jest of the Cess
pool" was accomplished. And this leak
of the Tabernacle is beheld by the peo-
pie Of the CITY unto this day.

The SALT LAKE DEMOCRAT does not un-
derstand the issue of local politics in Park
City, when it intimates that the Mormons
are getting to be formidable opposition in
our city elections. Americanism will down
Mormon politics every time, not only in
Park City, but in Summit county.-Pdrk
City Record.
THE DEMOCRAT never intimated that the
Mormons at Park City were "formida-
BILE opposition" to the Gentle vote there.
1t did, however, suggest that in case of a
close contest between two Gentle tick
cts, there were enough, perhaps, to con-
stitute balance Of power, and that it
would be SO welded as to elect the least
Objectionable ticket to them - which
would be pretty certain to be the most
Objectionable to majority of the Gentle
voters. That was all.

it. Another such straw to grab at, and
the Republican "grabber" is paralyzed
forever. There already looms up before
the eyes of the Nation in all of its gigantic
proportions, the one salient fact devel-
oped by the action of the Democracy of
Kentucky in convention assembled.
This fact, before which all else is
driven as chaff before the wind, is
the spontaneous and enthusiastic en-
dorsement of the Administration. Said
a gentleman bearing a name identified
with the Democracy and greatness of
Kentucky since she was the Ozark and
Bloody Ground, the immortal name
of Brekenridge-"As free man, and
free representative of freemen, l speak
my honest sentiments when l say that
since America has had Presidents, she
has not had a more honest, braver, or
cleaner man than Grover Cleye-
land" This sentiment was received
by the Convention with enthusiastic
applause. And the words of Brecken-
ridge are inscribed, in all their eloquence
and truth, upon the banner of the
Democracy OF Kentucky, as a fitting
tribute to the great chief executive, be-
meath whose guidance the first Demo-
cratic administration for twenty-four
years, has been emblazoned as ainational
triumph.
Kentuckians have not proved wanting.
They are the staunch and true Demo-
Gratis of old. They admire the Admins
tration, and they have transmitted to
Mr.. Cleveland their enthusiastic appre-
citation of his character. The flag of
Kentucky is still the banner of undivided
Democracy. And Kentucky is the State
on which the prying and anxious
eye of Republicanism has been
cast for evidences of dissatisfac-
ton. 1t is the State that was to
head the coming schism in the Demo
cratic ranks. 1t was known that in
some things Mr.. Cleveland's policy was
not in consonance with the views of some
of the leaders of the Democracy of the
State. 1t was even thought possible that
personal antipathy to Mr., Cleveland
might be developed strong enough to lead
to the most serious consequences. But
the fears were idle.

BUT little is heard of the scheme which
includes the annexation of the greatest
part of Utah to Nevada. The Idaho an
nexation project continues to be agi-
tated, and there is considerable proba-
bility that it will be accomplished at the
next session of Congress. Doubtless, the
projectors of the proposition had suf-
ficient discernment to realize that the
vesting Of the Mormon people with the
rights, privileges and power of Statehood
would not be favoraRly considered by
Congress, SO they concluded to drop it
out of their programme.

THE Denver NelUs says that the boom
in that city "still continues, and that the

Thus westward comes the tide of busi-
ness. Salt Lake City is directly in its
path, and our present promising boom
must shortly attain gigantic proportions.

necessity, thus ''choked off" General
Rosser by rebuking him for breathing
the air of free and loyal State" should
at least, in common humanity, have
allowed the offending General reason
